Ryan Gets Serious

Ryan, who just happens to be a totally spectacular junior high pastor, makes weird faces as he mercilessly clobbers the twins in a game of Wii tennis.

Hand in Camera

This picture finds itself in Cathy’s “favorite” stack because of the story behind the hand. Cathy loves the fact that you can never not capture a moment, as she feels that a hand in front of a camera tells just as large a story as the face behind the hand. Cathy’s suspicions are always confirmed when she hears kids yell out in excitement, “That’s my hand in front of the camera!”

Wendy Picks a Winner

Do I need to explain why this is just the best shot in the whole world? I think not!

Elmo Gets the Hammer

This was from the recent Omega Fall Explosion's Gross Stuff Night. This was the wildest smash-stuff night I'd ever seen. I thrive on getting the shot at the quintessential moment. I achieved my goal with this shot. I feel sorry for the monitor.

Steve Dumps on Carl

The youth ministries are supported by lots of dedicated old folks. There's a men's bible study group that's been meeting for over ten years, and continues to volunteer to feed the hungry young mouths of neighborhood church at various functions. In this image Steve exacts revenge on Carl as they are in the back of the church barbequing for a Fall Explosion.

Spencer and Chicken

Cathy loves how she captured the exact moment in time, when this poor bird was completely wrapped around Spencer’s bat. This shot reminds Cathy of the fun we have at Youth Group, the crazy things we do, and the fact that no matter how hard our lives ever get, we’re still better off than this chicken.

Girls Jumping Off Stage

This picture contains the whole story of our ministry to students. In it, we see the banner for “Fall Explosion,” our evangelistic outreach to lost students. These girls’ excitement for Youth Ministry is evident in their wholehearted support of the “Red Team” and their mid-air pose. Finally, seeing students and counselors enjoying ministry together reminds us of the legacy of Youth Ministry at Neighborhood Church.
